Urban Decay Brow Box Honey Pot Review & Swatches


Let's take a break from all the fantasy, shall we? I badly needed it! :)

Urban Decay Brow Box is my new favorite toy. I am hearting this little thing. It is like a treasure box. It's got everything your eyebrows need.

It comes with 2 shades of brow powders- light brown & a dark beige, clear wax, teeny tiny tweezers, and a teeny tiny angled brush.

Shades available:
Brown Sugar- Dark
Beige Betty - Medium
Gingersnap - Auburn


I got Honey Pot- Blonde. I almost went for Beige Betty-Medium, but I'm glad I didn't coz it would have been too dark for me.



You push the bottom drawer (which is attached to a spring inside) to release the wax. So cute!  



Likes:
♥  2 brow powders, so you can mix and match to get the shade you want. Brows look more natural too.
♥  The wax is amazing. It's not too sticky or gooey, but it still holds the hair in place. It's hard, not soft.
♥  The brush. It's the best brow brush EVER. It's small so it makes it so easy to fill in my brows without smudging outside. 
♥  Portable. Although, I don't think I'll carry it around for fear of breaking it. Klutz speaking.
♥  I love the packaging! Some people complain that it's too bulky. Well ya, if it's going to house all that stuff. If the brow powders and wax were near each other, the powders will obviously fly and stick to the wax. Ugh! Me no likey.
♥  What else? Ooh....it has a mirror. Not a tiny one. Big enough to see both brows together.

Dislikes: 
-  Price. I wish it was under a 1000 bucks.
-  The tweezers are a little hard to use. They need to be squeezed real hard to come together.

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
